Yes, because getting infected with the HIV virus is ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENT than having your stock fall 3% or something like that...
I'm not blaming you, I'm blaming the shareholders. And that is the same kind of people that think that having an MBA is more important than everything else...
Unless the purpose of all this is to punish people who make mistakes?
No, the purpose is to punish companies that charge and arm and a leg for their "OMG!! Tecnology million dollar IP patented!!111" crap that was HYPED, SOLD AND CHARGED as SECURE.
TortoiseSVN is very good and integrates with Windows explorer really really well (if you like that sort of thing).
Sorry, but no... Tortoise SVN is good, but is still lacking some things:
- Diff/Merge (may be configured to use an external tool, I really don't know) - Taking care of stupid things users do (namely, copying stuff between directories and taking the.svn with them) - Status indication is fuzzy with the icons Tortoise shows - Support for all svn commands is lacking
But those who dismiss XML as a valuable tool in the toolchest are equally as foolish as those who believe it's the end-all and be-all of programming
I couldn't agree more, and I think you've got the main advantages of XML right there: human-readable (and changeable), easy of use, flexibility and plenty of library support, etc, etc
And between reinventing the wheel for a general purpose thing and using XML, by all means, go with XML!
The main problem, of course, is speed. If this is a config file or something that is written and read not very often or is something that is not very big, it's no biggie, but it will get in the way in case of very big data-sets, parsing and searching, etc
"And, yes, it is very fast â" at least an order of magnitude faster than XML."
Just wait for the XML zealots to come crashing and not believing that XML is not the fastest, best, solution to all the world's problems (including cancer) and of course people at Google are amateurs and id10ts and WHY DO YOU HATE XML kind of stuff.
RCS (70's called back) Clearcase (just say no - people who doesn't know jack about source control, morons, phbs, and people with a diploma from irRational love it though, too bad it pisses off and hampers every developer, just google for 'clearcase sucks') SourceSafe (just say no x2) CVS (NO!!!)
Which leaves you with:
Perforce (the MS, Google, Amazon, EA, etc tool of choice) SVN ('playing safe' open source solution) Git / Bzr / HG ('cutting edge' open source solution) Accurev - 'cutting edge' proprietary solution
SVN free clients are 'not good' on windows (and windows env lacks several things we have for granted on windows), so, getting a proprietary svn client may be a good choice

Can the press, or maybe slashdot, stop speculating??
Maybe today is Apple trifecta day, you never know...

Well, guess what MS
I have an HP dv2000 right here, I'm writing this in it right now (on Linux, course)
(There are several versions of it, btw, mine is one of the more entry-level ones, but dual core, and upgraded to 1.5Gb of memory)
1.5Gb of memory, and Vista STILL SUX.
Unless for 'Mojave' they switched off all of their 'bright ideas' like super-fetch, etc
And how mature and professional is a support drone that says 'don't use linux, use windows vista'??

Just for the record
Woz blew millions of dollars in a music festival (U.S. Festival). Twice. Pretty much for the heck of it
He also bought his own plane (and crashed it)
Woz has all the money he needs.
Well, take a look at this:
http://www.anandtech.com/mac/showdoc.aspx?i=2685&p=11
G5s were faster in several tasks when the 1st intel macs arrived
How do you make make if to make make you need make?
Yes, it is not fast enough, except it has an embedded h264 decoder _in_hardware_ (in the Intel chipset that goes with it)
And it does 1080p beautifully (yes, I've seen it)
This is definitely good news for anybody who has ever tried to play high definition 1080p content on any CPU older than about a year.
Actually, one of the most preeminent examples of HW decoding of video nowadays is the Intel Atom processor, not really old processors.
Video accel. is inside the chipset for this one.
And yes, it is available in Linux, you will probably be able to watch h264 movies in your new EEEPC
You go five meters on 238 litres of petrol?
Are you insane??!?! Only the darnest kind of commie liberal hippie would drive a car with such high mpg!!11
Electricity has already undergone Carnot losses. Gasoline hasn't.
Yeah darn you Carnot making our gas less good! Sure it is a French man, who else, WHY DO YOU HATE OUR FREEDOM!!1111

Tortoise is not bad, bit it is too simple...

Or, as Joel Spolski once said: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000296.html
No, there is nothing wrong with XML per se, except for the fans...
because Yahoo's shareholders can see that it makes sense
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Yeah, right
Only MBA morons may think this makes sense... In the short term ONLY
And even then, which stock did better again for the past year, past 2 years, past FIVE YEARS?!??!
The only sensible thing the board should do is practice baseball with Icahn's head.
Oops, I meant "and windows env lacks several things we have for granted on LINUX"
Just don't pick one of these:
RCS (70's called back)
Clearcase (just say no - people who doesn't know jack about source control, morons, phbs, and people with a diploma from irRational love it though, too bad it pisses off and hampers every developer, just google for 'clearcase sucks')
SourceSafe (just say no x2)
CVS (NO!!!)

Git / Bzr / HG ('cutting edge' open source solution)
Accurev - 'cutting edge' proprietary solution

You see, it depends on the wavelength of the photon.
If they are red they may be counted multiple times
If they are blue, counting is more difficult, and sometimes several pass without being counted
Actually, most winmodems now are so crappy that they are better supported under linux because they use the AC97 circuits.
And when I needed to make a winmodem work in linux, it wasn't that difficult (but again, I only tried it once)
Also, I second the whole 'get a real modem' thing, they are cheap today.
No, he should go to the Apple Store and get an iWipe or something like that.
Actually, it will stop in a loop when bootstrapping itself for the bazillionth time :P
My favorite for VIM is :colorscheme elflord (especially for LCDs)
And in the console, 14pt font. fullscreen. light gray on black. It is amazing.
No, actually, the problem is in the cards... 100% realtek
